Plastic bags are a product that is made using a petroleum base. Therefore it uses up resources. On the other hand, it saves trees. On the other hand, it does not degrade for many years and therefore takes up needed space in our landfills. They blow around and can be found in trees, fences etc. And cause us to have to have more people in the waste pick up positions not to mention the pure ugly aspect of it. Some good points, some bad points.

One of the biggest reasons of the pollution is plastic bags. Especially in the seashores aquatic species dying just because of plastic bags. People should avoid using plastic bags just to control the pollution.
